Are Arsenal getting rid of the wrong striker?
Arsenal are closing in on an exciting swoop for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. But until Borussia Dortmund sign a replacement, the move will not be signed off.
The complicated scenario means Giroud leaving for Arsenal’s rivals to the chagrin of almost every Arsenal fan, given his stellar contribution to the club over the last five years.
A far simpler solution being put forward by many fans is to sell Alexandre Lacazette to Dortmund.
Lacazette only signed for Arsenal in the summer, with expectations he could be the club’s next great goalscorer.
It hasn’t happened.
Last night saw him continue to struggle. He has netted just once in his last 10 games.
Arsenal supporters are growing frustrated with his inability to change a game, and several would rather see him sold to Dortmund to facilitate Aubameyang’s arrival.
Giroud offers ‘something different’ to Arsenal, and while Lacazette will surely get better, his form is becoming a real worry.
